Help Me Write "I'm A Founder Baby!"

I’m working on a funny song about founder status in NYC, and I thought it would be fun to get people to shoot me lyric lines over twitter to include in the final song. The hook in the song is based on Jay-Z “Hustla”, but it’ll be way cheesier since I’m not Jay-Z. Here’s what I got for the chorus/hook so far:
I'm a founda baby!
And I want you to know
I'm not a nerd
Thanks to my VC dough

What I want people to do is take that, and the idea that founders need to be taken down a peg, and shoot me lyrics on twitter that you think would be funny in a song about founders and their groupies. I’ll collect up the most ruthless lyrics and work them into the song, then record the song and release it CC, giving you credit too.

If you got funny stories or lyrics about nerds changing into “leaders” overnight after becoming a “founder” then you can also send them to my email. If you want to rat someone out in private you can also use email.

If you can’t figure out my email address, then you’re probably not smart enough to write me some lyrics.
